Abstract

The initial creation of a union catalog containing 600,000 unique titles and 1.8 million physical items; the conversion of this database to interactive laserdisc; and the resultant advantages, are described. The application of laserdisc technology (discussed in this article) is thought to be the first of its kind. It will become widely emulated by other library systems.
